5' - 5'2" girls I want to hear your story and pics!
I'm 5'1" and 24 years old. Right now I'm at 169 lbs but I don't have a really goal in mind of where I want to be so seeing some pictures might help me know where I need to get. I feel like its hard to judge people's weightloss because many people are taller than me and 169 looks very different on even a 5'5" girl so I'd…

T25 Calories Burned
I just started up T25 last night and according my Polar FT4 I burned 240 calories in the 25 minutes. To me that seems really little... I was putting in pretty heavy effort but did have to modify the moves ever once in a while. I'm not complaining.. I'll take that for 25 minutes of work but I did expect to burn more. (Also…

How to calculate calories for something pan fried?
I'm wondering how can you accurately gauge how many calories are in something that's been pan friend/ sauteed/ deep fried? Obviously not all the oil you put in a pan ends up in the food you cook so anyone have a way to at least estimate how many extra calories are added when using oil to cook?

How do you long 30 DS calories burned?
I am planning to start 30 DS today but I'm not sure how to log my calories burned. I don't have a HRM yet so I know anything I log will not be exact. I see options like aerobic, calisthenics, and circuit training on MFP but I'm not sure what to pick to give me a sort of round answer for how many cals I'll burn. Any advise?

What is the deal with Heart Rate Monitors?
Guys I need your help! After a lot of research on Amazon I bought a heart rate monitor.
